Don't get me wrong: you can coax some creativity out, but on the one hand at the expense of the effectiveness of the usable living quality, and on the other hand, I don't think you're even willing to do that. Let's take my design with the kitchen/sofa corner swap: that doesn't seem to appeal to you at all. And yet, that's not even creative. Let's take the second access to the north terrace: I would already see the north/south sightline in the hallway as an added value on the entire floor, because it is not only feasible but gives the house a special charm that supports the spaciousness and makes the house special without being negative in any way.
I never said it doesn't appeal; I just wanted to understand why the swap is better for you. I can already understand the reasons and would actually be open to the swap.
What does the construction partner say about your suggestions? You want to build mirrored to save costs. Or am I misunderstanding that?
We are both currently reconsidering which side makes more sense. It will not happen that one party chooses a north orientation and the other a south orientation. However, the floor plan including where the entrance is located is up to each individual.

Why will it not happen? - Point symmetry instead of axial symmetry is also an alternative.
